Reborn Dragon Vein Warlock, Genius Beauty Mage
Chapter 207 Cold Winter (5)
Elena gently opened the door and reported: "Your Majesty, Miss Olivia is back."
"Let her in."
Olivia walked into the living room like a gust of wind, her skirt swinging lightly like dancing butterfly wings: "Your Majesty, I'm back... Wow! What is this?"
She saw the open box on the table, which contained gifts from Bishop Leroy. These small items were very attractive to noble ladies and young ladies.
"The bishop of the Church of the Goddess of Wealth is here, and this is a gift from him."
Olivia exclaimed exaggeratedly: "Wow! Now even the bishop has given gifts to the Earl!"
Christine looked over with a look that looked like a fool. This is not the first time that the bishop of the Goddess of Wealth Church has given him a gift. You are acting too exaggeratedly.
She knew what Olivia was thinking, but she didn't point it out. She just asked: "You are back, who is responsible for Rabia's defense?"
"I'll only be back for one day, and I've already asked Master Ramos to come over."
"Ah."
No one can stay in the mage tower all the time. If anything happens, just coordinate it yourself, so Kristen didn't ask any more questions.
Olivia pulled up her skirt and sat on the sofa next to her, saying, "Your Majesty, I have something to discuss with you."
"what's up?"
"Yaskin Campel wants to open a canned vegetable workshop in the city of Dominaria."
"Oh?"
Olivia didn't dare to hide it and explained: "I came up with the idea. He is responsible for providing money and people. I own 60% of the workshop."
"Are you fooling this silly kid again? Or are you really attracted to him?"
Olivia hurriedly explained: "Don't get me wrong, Lord Earl, I will never fall in love with any man. It's just a business cooperation."
"You can just pluck out the hair of this sheep, and you won't be afraid of getting bald."
"My Lord Earl, he is the richest among the nobles living in the city now. If he doesn't do it, he can do it. Besides, it's not considered poaching, and he has made a lot of money. Others want me to do it, but I don't have the qualifications to do so. ."
"Just control yourself. I will mention this to Victor."
"Thank you, Lord Count."
"What else do you want?"
"never mind."
"Then what are you still doing here?"
Olivia suddenly leaned forward slightly, pointed to the box on the table, and said in a slightly trembling voice: "Cousin Kristen, these exquisite items will only appear in my dreams, can I try to wear them? Just one, it won’t get damaged.”
Kristine rolled her eyes cutely: "It doesn't look like you're acting, please be more serious."
Olivia's fingers clenched the hem of her clothes, trembling slightly, like flowers swaying in the wind, full of weakness and helplessness: "Cousin Christine, please bear with me..."
"I've given you the stuff, get out of here!"
Olivia picked up the box on the table and ran out quickly: "Thank you, Lord Earl, I only take one box, I love you."
After the outbreak of the demon disaster, the demons randomly transmitted to the mainland greatly affected the land trade routes. This made the maritime trade routes more prosperous, and the industries related to shipping naturally became profitable.
Scurvy is a problem that sailors and passengers must face when sailing on sea ships for weeks or even months. The usual method is to use sealed lemons or dehydrated vegetables in clay pots, which are sold in corresponding stores in major ports.
But lemons and vegetables are all grown in the ground. The devil's rampage destroyed a lot of cultivated land, and the lemons and vegetables grown naturally suffered a lot from this, and the supply became in short supply.
Olivia previously collaborated with Yaskin Campel to grow some vegetables with short growth cycles and sell them to the workshop, which made a lot of money. Now her idea is to enter the downstream industry and set up her own workshop to make canned vegetables for sale.
This process is not complicated, but it is greatly restricted by raw materials. If the problem of vegetable sources is solved, whoever does it will make a sure profit.
The reason why Olivia came to see Christine was because any aristocratic businessman who wanted to open a workshop, shop, warehouse, etc. in the territory needed to report to the city hall for approval.
All the most profitable industries in the territory are monopolized by the nobles themselves. The Tulip Chamber of Commerce has several workshops for making canned vegetables. If she didn't say hello to Christine, it would be impossible for the city hall to approve it.
Kristine doesn't care about other nobles getting involved in these industries. What she does is a platform, not an industry. The land in the territory is only for rent and not for sale. When the nobles doing business make money, her land rent will naturally increase.
This was also the first time Olivia came into contact with matters related to opening a workshop. She looked at this matter based on the experience of an ordinary noble, thinking that she needed to greet Christine in advance, but in fact she did not need to. But it was not a wasted trip, as I walked away with a box of gifts.
As for Yaskin Campel, he was immediately overjoyed when he heard that he could open a workshop. He felt that this was all due to Olivia, so he gave her many gifts.
Since Miss Olivia had shares in the workshop, Victor naturally gave them priority in selecting a location, and then arranged the construction craftsmen as soon as possible.
In Stewart Territory, nobles and merchants must hire a special construction team if they want to carry out large-scale construction projects. The reason is for the overall beauty of the city. After careful calculation, the cost is actually lower than hiring people to build it yourself, so these construction teams are very popular.
For Kristine, these teams are just a large number of slaves led by a few managers and technicians. Under the current situation, it is enough to have enough food, and there is no need for supervisors to do the work, which is almost costless.
With a professional team and skilled construction workers, the workshop was quickly built and the first batch of products were put into the market.
Dominaria City is now one of the most prosperous ports in the Western Continent. Countless merchant ships come and go every day, and the berths are being expanded. With more ships and more sailors, the demand for canned vegetables naturally increased. Besides, this thing is durable in storage. It is sold cheaply in Dominaria Port. You can buy more at a time and use it sooner or later.
Although a workshop does not make much money, it is still a hugely profitable business, which is much better than other nobles who work hard to get a salary or even sit on their hands.
Baron Quimper bought new clothes, the Baroness bought new jewelry, and held more banquets. The two became more and more satisfied with Olivia, their "prospective daughter-in-law."
In their opinion, if she didn't have a crush on her handsome son, why would Olivia want to make money with him? Others have the same view. Feelings can be deceptive, but gold coins cannot deceive.
